There are plenty of walleye fishing lures out there to choose from. It can be tough when you go to a retailer or a bait shop and see rows and rows of them. This is my list of the top 10 though so you can get a good idea of what to try. I have used all of them and love what they do. There are others I like too but to narrow down this list I had to go with what is best in terms of the cost, the value, how easy they are to work with, and of course the number of walleye that I have been able to successfully catch with them.

#10 Marabou Jig

The Marabou Jig is a great tool to work with. I have also used it to catch pike and bass so if you often fish for different types of fish you can go with this one and use it on a regular basis. I tend to use them for walleye in the spring time and have gotten me some very nice looking ones with it.

#9 Spinner Bait

I like the Spinner Bait because it is a stretchable option. It has been great for walleye and I find it is a snap to put onto the hook. In fact, it was one that I used above all others for a very long time. It just seemed that I got walleye every time I used it. I think that it is the pattern that the fish see when it spins that makes it so attractive to them in the water.

#8 DareDevil

This is more than 100 years old and they got it right so long ago. Even with all of the updated fishing stuff out there I still like to use this one. I have used it for my kids too because that is what I went fishing for walleye with when my grandpa and my own dad took me on those memorable trips long ago.

#7 Storm Thunder Crank

There are many forms of crank bait out there but the Storm Thunder Crank leaves them in the dust. The action of it is very hard to explain but you have to try it. I promise that you won’t be disappointed in the least. The silver pattern that it offers is very attractive to walleye.

#6 Lure

It is fitting that this one is in the #6 position right? There is just nothing as universal for catching walleye as the #6 lure. You may have tried some cheap imitations of it but I am telling you that this is something you need to have with your tackle if you are serious about getting your hands on some nice sized walleye.

#5 The Rapala Long Cast

I got this as a gift and it was in my tackle for a very long time before I gave it a try just because of the other great lures I already had to use. I was impressed with it though from the first time I got it out of the package. It also allowed me to cast my line out further than what I am often able to do with other lures so that was definitely a bonus. The pattern on it is green and that has been very good when I go to Minnesota and North Dakota for a weekend of walleye fishing.

#4 Wooly Hawg Craw

The Wooly Hawg Craw is offered by Yum Baits. It can be hard to find but if you don’t see it locally shop for one online to see how it does for you. I am telling you that you will get some large sized walleye with it.

#3 Chompers Tube

This offers a scent on the tubes and they have a wide hook. There are few walleye out there that won’t be interested in this. They have a strong smell though so don’t open them up until you get to the fishing location!

#2 JB Lure Vibra Flash

This is a spinner type of lure that is a bit higher priced than others but I really recommend it for walleye. I think it tricks them and I have always done well with them. There are two and three pronged ones and I find those with three prongs are the best.

#1 Jig and Grub Combo

You simply can’t beat how versatile this overall design happens to be. I still use this and it fits well for me. I often use it without thinking twice and often have to tell myself to give other lures a fair chance from time to time when I go out fishing.

If you don’t have several of these lures around then you are missing out on the chance to get the walleye you are after. Once you add them to your tackle you will notice a huge increase in what you take home!
